Baked Eggs In Holes Recipes

Steps:

• For the baked bagel egg-in-the-hole: Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Brush the parchment with 2 tablespoons of the melted butter.
• Using a 2-inch round cutter, make the center of each bagel half larger. Save the cutout pieces. Brush the cut side of the bagels and bagel cutouts with 2 tablespoons of the melted butter.
• Place the bagels cut-side down on the prepared baking sheet. Line up the cutout pieces down the center of the baking sheet cut-side down as well. Using the palm of your hand, press the bagels into the baking sheet. This will help make sure they are touching the baking sheet so the eggs won't seep out before they're cooked.
• Brush the tops of the bagels and cutouts with the remaining 2 tablespoons butter. Crack an egg into each bagel hole. Season the eggs with salt and pepper. Bake for 11 to 14 minutes, depending on how you like your eggs; 11 minutes will give you a runny yolk, while 14 minutes will give you a fully cooked yolk.
• For the hollandaise: In a small saucepan, melt the butter until sizzling.
• Put the egg yolks in a blender and turn on a low speed to allow them to combine. While the machine is running, slowly begin pouring the hot butter into the blender in a thin, steady stream. Once all the butter is in, immediately begin adding the lemon juice.
• Check the blender to make sure the sauce is still liquidy and moving easily through the blades. If not, add a little more juice and give it a stir and then blend again. Add the cayenne pepper and a pinch of salt. Taste and adjust the seasoning if necessary. Transfer to a serving pitcher and cover with foil until serving.
• For the garnish: Transfer the bagels and cutouts to a serving platter. Arrange the salmon around the bagels and garnish with the red onions, chives and capers. Serve with the warm hollandaise on the side.

Steps:

• Melt the bacon grease in a non-stick pan over low heat.
• Cut a 1 1/2 to 2-inch hole from the center of the bread slice; lay in the hot skillet. When the side facing down is lightly toasted, about 2 minutes, flip and crack the egg into the hole; season with salt and pepper. Continue to cook until the egg is cooked and mostly firm. Flip again and cook 1 minute more to assure doneness on both sides. Serve immediately.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375 degrees.
• Line a large rimmed sheet pan with parchment paper or foil sprayed with nonstick cooking spray.
• Spread butter on both sides of each bread slice and place on prepared pan.
• Using a 2 to 2 1/2 inch cookie cutter or glass, cut a round from the center of each bread slice.
• Bake in oven for 5 minutes.
• Remove pan from oven and turn bread over.
• Carefully crack 1 egg into the center of each bread slice.
• Season with salt and pepper.
• Bake for 7-9 minutes, rotating pan halfway through, until egg whites are set but yolks are still runny.
• Using a large pancake lifter, transfer each serving to a plate.
• Serve immediately with any of the suggested toppings.

Steps:

• Heat oven to 400 degrees. Slice the top third off tomatoes and use a small spoon to remove core and seeds. Arrange in a baking dish, drizzle with oil, and season with salt and pepper. Sprinkle with thyme and garlic. Roast until tomatoes are tender and caramelized, about 30 minutes.
• Crack an egg into each tomato and season with salt and pepper. Bake until eggs are just set, 7 to 9 minutes more.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven broiler to high. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
• On a cutting board, butter all the sandwich bread and transfer to the prepared baking sheet.
• Using a glass, cut out the centers of 6 slices of bread.
• Toast the bread under the broiler for 5 minutes, or until toasted. Keep a close eye on it so it doesn't burn.
• Reduce the oven temperature to 350˚F (180˚C).
• Make the Béchamel sauce: Melt the butter in a small saucepan over medium heat. Add the flour and whisk until it darkens slightly.
• Add the milk and whisk to combine. Reduce the heat to low and simmer until reduced by half.
• Remove the pot from the heat and add the salt, pepper, nutmeg, Gruyère, and Parmesan and stir until fully incorporated.
• Line a 9 x 13-inch baking dish with parchment paper.
• Lay 6 pieces of toast in the bottom of the dish. Top with 9 slices of Swiss cheese, 6 slices of ham, and 2 cups of spinach. Repeat to make another layer and top with the hollow-centered toast.
• Crack an egg into each hole. Carefully ladle the Béchamel sauce over the bake, leaving the yolks exposed.
• Cover and bake for 35 minutes, then uncover and bake for 10 minutes more, until the eggs are cooked to your liking and the Béchamel is starting to brown in spots.
• Slice and serve garnished with chives, if desired.
• Enjoy!
